Amber Heard's new quiet 'life in exile' as she celebrates 'completing family'

Amber Heard's new quiet 'life in exile' as she celebrates 'completing family'

Daily Mirror12-05-2025

Following her explosive court battle with ex-husband Johnny Depp, actress Amber Heard has opted for a 'life of isolation' in Spain and has since welcomed twins to the 'Heard gang'
It's been nearly three years since Amber Heard, 39, and Johnny Depp, 61, went head-to-head in a court case that captured huge amounts of attention worldwide. The details of the formerly married couple's life together were pored over as allegations of defamation were heard in the civil case - and Amber in particular received a huge amount of hate from online trolls as Depp's name was cleared.
These days, the Aquaman actress's days look pretty different from the A-list lifestyle she was once embroiled in, with Amber now enjoying a quiet life pretty much under the radar in Spain - where she has just welcomed twin babies to her family.

In a post marking Mother's Day in the US, the actress revealed the exciting news that she has now become a mum-of-three, with her eldest child Oonagh Paige, born in 2021 to a surrogate, now a big sister. "Mother's Day 2025 will be one I'll never forget. This year I am elated beyond words to celebrate the completion of the family I've strived to build for years.

"Today I officially share the news that I welcomed twins into the Heard gang. My daughter Agnes and my son Ocean are keeping my hands (and my heart) full," Amber wrote in the post on Instagram.
"When I had my first baby girl Oonagh four years ago, my world changed forever. I thought I couldn't possibly burst with more joy. Well, now I am bursting times three!!!
"Becoming a mother by myself and on my own terms despite my own fertility challenges has been the most humbling experience of my life. I am eternally grateful that I was able to choose this responsibly and thoughtfully.
"To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you. Love always, A x"
The actress, who came out as bisexual in 2010, first moved to Mallorca, Spain, in the immediate aftermath of her court case with her ex-husband, which saw the jury award £12 million ($13m) to the Pirates of the Caribbean star in damages. Depp first brought a defamation claim against his ex-wife after she wrote an opinion piece for the Washington Post that claimed she had been a victim of domestic abuse, despite the fact she never named her famous ex-husband in the article.

Heard then countersued Depp - and was awarded £2 million for one of her three claims. Johnny Depp's legal team later confirmed that his ex-wife had paid him £820,000 ($1 million) in a settlement for the defamation case.
Amber, who has kept her dating life underwraps since her court battle, has since moved to Madrid from Majorca, where she is said to have "integrated" and keeps a relatively "low profile" in her affluent neighbourhood that is said to be inhabited by a number of big names. A source is reported as telling the MailOnlin e: "She lives here and I often see her walking her daughter to school in the mornings.
"She wears a cap and sunglasses and normal clothes and keeps a low profile. She lives here in peace, this is a neighbourhood filled with famous people, including football players, but no one bothers each other, I think that's why she likes it - she has completely integrated into the community."

For her part, Amber told the press last year, "I love Spain so much," and added when asked if she would like to remain living in her new home: "Yes, I hope so. Yes, I love living here."
However, whilst she now feels so positive about her new life in Madrid, the circumstances of her exit from the US were less than ideal, even referred to as the actress being "exiled" in some reports, with a source saying - per Grazia - that the chaotic aftermath of the trial left Heard with no choice but to leave.
"Her isolation from the world in which she used to inhabit is quite jarring when you consider she's taken that step back because of the trauma and distress her marriage, the divorce and the ensuing legal drama has caused her. Amber was once an A-list star, and this has all taken a lot out of her, to the point where she has lost passion for living that Hollywood life," they explained.

Another insider told the magazine that the sheer level of Depp's popularity has had a huge impact on Amber's acting career, and the circles within which she would now be welcomed. "Depp has a lot of loyal friends and is hugely popular and powerful," they explained, "Amber knows that there are certain franchises and studios where she won't be welcome."
A-list names like Penelope Cruz, Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, and many more have not hesitated to throw their public support behind Depp, despite the myriad of controversial allegations that have followed him in recent years, with his career going from strength to strength.
Amber, on the other hand, has only acted in one independent movie since the trial concluded.
